Description

Multihyphenate Erin Sullivan joins the podcast to discuss the historical weight of Marilyn Monroe, the challenges of portraying such a beloved and complex figure, and the personal and artistic risks taken to keep her one-woman show, With Love, Marilyn, fresh for international audiences.


Erin Sullivan is a seasoned actress, singer, and writer with a career spanning over 30 years in theater. Originally trained in musical theater, she has performed nationwide but found a deep personal connection in bringing Marilyn Monroe’s story to life. After originating the role of Marilyn in Mark Medoff’s Marilee and Baby Lamb, she was inspired to create With Love Marilyn, which debuted in London last month.
